Flower print and fruit...

Once upon a time I sewed a piece of felt in the shape of an apple on to one of my tops. I thought it was pretty cool which is why I decided to create a cushion in the same style.

This cushion actually started life as a dress, but I love the pattern and wanted to create something new from it when wearing it wasn't an option anymore.

I've stuck with applique for the leaf, like I've said before, I just love that folky style! And I just really wanted to use a really bold print and contrast it with something plain(ish) but I do love a bit of bright colour, and I think the apple is perfect.

Blue skies and sparkly clouds...

There's something about the sky and the clouds that are so relaxing. Well when the sky is blue and the clouds are fluffy anyway.

So that's why I decided to make this little cushion, a little piece of blue sky in the house.

And to add a little sparkle to the felt, I just used a little bit of glittery fabric paint.
